"We met in 2011 at the Montpellier festival. It was the very first screening in France of my film Cairo 678. The screening ended with a standing ovation. Gaspard was in the room, he loved it and we talked. When I saw Mogart's character, I reached out to him and offered him the part. I always felt he had everything Hollywood needed. He had the physique, he had the talent, he was fit, he rode horses and he did extreme stuff. He was perfect for Moon Knight. I was one of the only ones to know how much he meant in French cinema. I was stunned by his humility and down-to-earth side. It looked like his very first day on a set. I said to him: 'I am sure that the fans and the studio will want to see you again'."
